Draping day three


(front pattern piece with me in the background)

Today was the day we continued to transfer our drapes onto paper patterns, and so far so good! I was surprised how I didn't struggle too much with the process, although overall was a very nerve wracking process as I worried a lot about making mistakes! Both my top and skirt patterns ended up looking very unusual (especially the skirt, which was basically just a rectangle patten piece!!) but hopefully all will fit together!

After I had cut out the pattern onto material I then began to re-drape onto the manikin, which started off well but whilst pining I realised I hadn't labeled where all the pleats are going (duhhh) so tomorrow I shall tackle this!
